- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 6.36.0
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected bundle excerpts show standard exports and telemetry reporting. The scanner signals do not establish malicious behavior.

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack was identified. The inspected bundle behavior is ordinary module export and telemetry reporting.

- **Trigger:** Importing the package exposes its CommonJS exports; telemetry sends when events or logs are queued.

- **Impact:** No concrete malicious impact was established.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-10-08T20:07:56.463Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** The browser bundle posts telemetry batches to configured endpoint paths. The inspected code showed no install hook or unrelated credential forwarding.

- **Rationale:** The manifest has no install lifecycle hook, and the inspected bundle excerpts show standard exports and telemetry reporting. The scanner signals do not establish malicious behavior.

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 90.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json lists build and development scripts but no preinstall, install, or postinstall hook., dist/clerk.js ends with a normal CommonJS export bridge., dist/clerk.browser.js sends event and log batches to endpoint paths provided by its telemetry client.

### 9. High: Previous Version Dangerous Delta
- **Category:** Supply Chain
- **Confidence:** 93.0%
- **Path:** dist/clerk.browser.js
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@clerk/clerk-js@6.36.0/dist/clerk.browser.js>)

This package version adds a dangerous source file absent from the previous stored version; route for source-aware review.

Public source snippet (untrusted):

```javascript
matchType = previous_version_dangerous_delta
matchedPackage = @clerk/clerk-js@6.31.1
matchedIdentity = npm:QGNsZXJrL2NsZXJrLWpz:6.31.1
similarity = 0.927
summary = stored previous version shares package body but lacks this dangerous source file
```

- **Confidence:** 90.0%
- **Path:** package.json
- **Public source:** [View source](<https://unpkg.com/@clerk/clerk-js@6.36.0/package.json>)
